My dear blogger friends, e-zoodeen has released his first new e-book on “Easy Animation Tutorial using Adobe Imageready” or in the Bahasa Melayu, “Tutorial Animasi Ringkas menggunakan Adobe Imageready “.

I’ve read this 8 pages e-book tutorial, and it is kinda cool & easy to catch up the content. Hey, it is not easy to write an e-book oke! So, thumb up to e-zodeen for this e-book. Even me also cannot release my own e-book because i donno how. rofl it is something hard to do.

Well, this e-book is written in Bahasa Melayu. So, im not sure whether others can understand our mother tongue language or not. This ebook just cover the basic step of animation using Adobe Imageready sofware. You can get this software along with Adobe Photoshop Cs2. I dont know about cs3. Maybe yes too.

Well, this ebook only show the basic stuff on it. The most importantly is for you to explore & experiment more on it. Actually, Adobe Photoshop itself is built in with animation in it. Just explore it by yourself. This e-book is worth to read. So, give a try. Download it here.

3. I am a fanatic of Malaysia Independent music scene.

This is the reason why I was tagged by Aisyah. Just because I heart the Indie Music so much. I started to get know about the indie local scene 2 years ago. Ohyeah, dont talk shit about the local acts in Malaysia or else you get the flamethrower from me. Hehe. I really hate mainstream artist. Yes, everything about mainstream. Mainstream is just a propaganda. Demit.
4. Lack in communication skill.
Ofcourse I talks so much. But that just craps. Everyone can talk craps right? But for real, I cant speak out at the public audience. I only know to talk in Sarawak malay language. That’s it. Apart from that, none. I think that talking in other language is weird. WTF? But im not racist or semangat kenegeriaan okeyhh..

Milo ice filling my throat everyday & night. Hehe. I was drink it since aged ago & never get bored to it. ROFL. One of my favourite drinks to be ordered in Restaurant. Hehe

9. Street fashion owned me.
I use to be in street fashion thing with that grungy design tshirt, backpacks, shoes & all that. It’s grungy design, not grunge oke. Im not really a loyal fashion stalker into some of the music genre. I just change whenever i want. Yes, i am poser or whatever you call that. I am what i am. I do what i do.

10. I hate to appear as online !!
I always switch my yahoo messenger to invisible although i am online for 24hours perhaps that day. Chatting is kinda of boring. I only chat with cute girls when i have mood towards it. but i can go crazy over chatting sometimes. But the chances for it is just 2 out of 10. hehe

In this year, i have meet many type of people whether in internet or in the real world. I make friends with some in internet and manage to meet them in the real world. Wow.!! I also learn more things about friendship. Yeah., people is rare, and im RARE too. Who care.~

Changing into a new style

Ohyeah, fuking i do. No more be a so called POSER!! I’ve learn that style is something that come naturally from my heart, not by looking on other. I hate to be a poser and i hate to posering by other. I listen to new type of music. And i also stop listening to indonesians music. We got more cool artists and band here. Just the media who didnt know it. I don’t understand people who are satisfied with ordinary Pop music, they just listen to whatever radio stations decide they should like. Get a life. !

For example, i have put two photos below. It is the same picture, the same height & width.

Picture 1:

Picture 2:

Now, which photo load faster? Of course the first one. This is because the size of file is smaller tha the second one. If you are using fiferox browser, u can right click on the picture and click propeties to view the size of the photo.

To get the optimum size of photo, you need to use “save for web” option in photoshop. If you still dont have photoshop, you can download it in my previous post.

1. first, open the picture that u want to upload. Then, go to file and click “save for web”.

2. After that, as you can see on the picture below, there is three option that you can use. Whether option number 1,2 or 3.

3. The key here is to see how much time did the picture takes to load on web. You can always refer to the left bottom side of the picture as below.

But, make sure that you dont set it to lower. Because it will affect the quality of your photo. But if you dont mind or just to have picture to make sure it didnt suffer the dial-up user, then u can use it.
